House, M.D. – Season One
From Universal Studios
He pops pills, watches soaps, and always, always says what’s on his mind. He’s Dr. Gregory House (Emmy nominee Hugh Laurie, Blackadder). Producers David Shore, Bryan Singer, Katie Jacobs, and Paul Attanasio haven’t rewritten the hospital drama–at heart, it’s a cross between St. Elsewhere, ER, and C.S.I.–but they’ve infused a moribund genre with new life and created one of TV’s most compelling characters. More than any previous medical procedural, it resembles Attanasio’s underrated Gideon’s Crossing, but House is lighter on its feet. As fascinating as he is, the show wouldn’t work as well if it were all House all the time (that would be like Sherlock Holmes without Watson or Moriarty). More

Gilmore Girls – The Complete Fifth Season
From Warner Home Video
Perennially one of the WB’s highest-rated series, Gilmore Girls hit its creative high point to date with its stellar fifth season, which started out with young Rory (Alexis Bledel) feeling the fallout of doing something terribly non-Rory-like: sleeping with Dean (Jared Padalecki), her married ex-boyfriend. Rory’s indulgence in adultery put, for the first time, a serious, sharp wedge in her relationship with her mother, Lorelai (Lauren Graham), who was both shocked by her daughter’s behavior and worried Rory would repeat the mistakes Lorelai made at her age.
